Skillbank

At Skillbank, we are dedicated to providing top-notch IT support and maintenance services to small local businesses, charities, and private individuals. Our motto "Advice is free" reflects our commitment to offering clients answers to simple questions at no charge. By confining our operations to the local area, we can minimize costs and provide a timely response to clients with IT problems. Our highly qualified and experienced staff can help with most areas of IT support, including maintenance and repair, data recovery, and advice on security and consultancy.

Maintenance and Repair

Our team can assist with a wide range of issues such as virus or spyware infections, networking problems, or data loss. We aim to provide the needed support rapidly and efficiently to minimize disruption to your business. We also offer planned maintenance, which involves regular visits to test and clean your system hardware and software, ensuring your computers are virus-free and backups are working effectively.

Data Recovery

We have had a lot of success in retrieving data economically through our use of specialized software on our dedicated Linux-based PC. Our "no data, no fee" policy means you have nothing to lose by asking for help when you first notice problems, such as a slow PC. This can be crucial for recovering treasured family photos, accounts, or documents.

Advice, Security, and Consultancy

In addition to our maintenance and repair services, we can provide further IT support, including training in the use of Windows and standard applications, resolving issues with peripheral devices or networks and internet access issues. We also offer advice on online security and can provide alternatives for secure deletion of your data if you are disposing of equipment. Remember, good advice costs less than bad decisions, especially when it's free!

Charity Support

At Skillbank, we are committed to supporting local charities. A percentage of our profits is donated, and we also refurbish and sell donated equipment. 100% of the income from this, after deduction of the cost of any replacement parts, goes directly to the charity and is boosted by gift aid. If you have an unwanted PC or laptop, please consider donating it for us to sell.
